Workshop Summary: Building an NHANES for the Future. The workshop also included a "Town Hall" component to gather additional feedback on NHANES' challenges and proposed solutions from audience members. The workshop provided many possible action items that ASN will explore and use to inform effective continued advocacy in support of NHANES and to find possible opportunities for ASN and others to partner with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) National Center for Health Statistics (NCHS) to strengthen this vital survey and maintain its robust and relevant data moving forward. |

Financial burden following adult liver transplantation is common and associated with adverse recipient outcomes. In this multicenter cohort study, nearly 1 in 4 adult liver transplant recipients experienced high financial burden, which was significantly associated with delayed or foregone medical care and lower self-reported HRQOL. These findings underscore the need to evaluate and address financial burden in this population before and after transplantation. |
Immune checkpoint inhibitors in liver transplantation: Current practice, challenges and opportunities. In this review we explore the current use of this class of medications in patients with HCC, as well as the immunologic role of the pathways that they inhibit. We also identify potentials for future research opportunities to better understand the role of these medications. |
Simultaneous total internal biliary diversion during liver transplantation for progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis Type 1: Standard of care? We demonstrate that simultaneous TIBD in patients undergoing LT should be standard practice as it helps dramatically improve outcomes in PFIC-1 as it prevents graft steatosis and/or fibrosis, diarrhea and improves growth catch-up. |

Efficacy and Rationale of Endoscopic Ultrasound-Guided Thrombin Injection in Visceral Artery Pseudoaneurysm Not Amenable to Angioembolization. Endoscopic ultrasound-guided thrombin injection in visceral artery pseudoaneurysm is a safe and effective alternative for patients not amenable for digital subtraction angiography-guided angioembolization. |
Fatty Liver, Statin Therapy, and the Risk of Hypertriglyceridemic Acute Pancreatitis: A Retrospective Study. Although with lower TGs levels, patients with FL are much more prone to generate HTGP, and our findings suggest a potential role of statin as protective agents against HTGP. |
MicroRNA Signatures for Pancreatic Cancer and Chronic Pancreatitis: Expression Profiling by NGS. This study resulted in a set of exclusive and differentially expressed miRNAs in PDAC and CP can be assessed for their diagnostic value. In addition, studying the role of miRNA-target gene interactions in carcinogenesis may open new therapeutic avenues. |
Pancreatic Paragonimiasis in Children: A Case Report. Here we describe a case of pulmonary and abdominal paragonimiasis with involvement of the pancreas in a 9-year-old boy. The aim of this study was to analyze the clinical and radiological features of pancreatic paragonimiasis in children and raise the awareness of this disease. |
The Signal Intensity Ratio of Pancreas to Spleen in Magnetic Resonance Imaging Can Predict Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease After Pancreaticoduodenectomy. The SI ratio p/s is useful to predict NAFLD development after PD. Moreover, the SI ratio p/s can be a surrogate marker, which represents exocrine function of the pancreas. |

Association between serum triglyceride level and severity of acute biliary pancreatitis. Elevated serum TG levels were independently associated with more severe ABP. The incidence of POF, APFC, and ANC in ABP patients increased with the increase of TG levels, with a linear relationship. |
Explainable cancer factors discovery: Shapley additive explanation for machine learning models demonstrates the best practices in the case of pancreatic cancer. In summary, the eight hub-IRGs had accurate risk prediction performance and biological significance, which was validated in other cancers. The result of SHAP helped to understand the molecular mechanism of pancreatic cancer. |
Machine learning improves early prediction of organ failure in hyperlipidemia acute pancreatitis using clinical and abdominal CT features. Machine-learning models can be used to predict OF occurrence in HLAP in our pilot study. RF model showed the best predictive performance, which may be a promising candidate for further clinical validation. |
Maintenance steroid therapy is associated with decreased risk of malignancy and better prognosis of patients with autoimmune pancreatitis: A multicenter cohort study in Japan. Patients with AIP are at increased risk of developing malignancy, especially PC. PC is a critical prognostic factor for patients with AIP. Although maintenance steroid therapy negatively impacts diabetes mellitus and osteoporosis, it is associated with decreased cancer risk and improved overall survival. |
